Bath resealing in Nettleham

Bath resealing in Nettleham, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We are frequently asked to fix a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps, in baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Nettleham and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Your questions about bath resealing in Nettleham

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Do you cover Nettleham?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Nettleham and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Nettleham. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Nettleham.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

What we are called out for in Nettleham

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Stained silicone

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before you book

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Let steam out after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
